Well Canada is finally rounding into shape after a solid showing today at the games.

Van Koeverdan won a gold in the K1 500 m, and was followed with a bronze medal won by Brunet in the womens K1 500m.

The Sailing team also picked up a silver.

This already is our best day of the Olympics picking up three medals (1G 1S 1B) and gold medal hopeful Alexander Despatie advancing to the 10 M platform diving finals tonight in first place.

Our running total is now 12 (3G 6S 3B) with 1 day left in the olympics and a few more realistic chances of medals.

Can Canada better there total of 14 medals in Sydney? Any predictions? I think it's going to be tough, but I could definetely see them matching there total from last year, still a step back IMO though.
